Answer:

80 units

Step-by-step explanation:

v = 1/3 bh

v₁ = 1/3 * b * h₁ = 344

v₂ = 1/3 * b * h₂ = 301

v₁ / v₂ = h₁ / h₂ = 344 / 301

h₂ = h₁ - 10

h₁ / (h₁ - 10) = 344 / 301

344 * (h₁ - 10) = 301 * h₁

344* h₁ - 3440 = 301 * h₁

43 * h₁ = 3440

h₁ = 80

Scilla [17]

Answer:

The sum is 1

Step-by-step explanation:

When you add a negative number to a positive number, it is basically just subtracting the negative from the positive. To make it simple, 5 + -4 is just 5 - 4.

Hannah was wrong in saying you take the sign of the larger number because it would not matter if the first number was a million, the signs don't change based on the size of numbers.

Evaluate the expression.
Katarina [22]

Answer:

11

Step-by-step explanation:

The lines on the outside simply means "absolute value". This just takes any negative number and makes it positive. In this case, 15-4 is already positive so the answer is just positive 11.
